Dog Fur Magnet

I thought it was bad having a black dog and white tile in my home. Now I know it is worse to have a white-ish dog and any other surface in the known universe. Molly sheds like there's no tomorrow, and loves to rub against my leg when I'm wearing dark pants. At least Lucky's fur isn't so "sticky" -- it will brush right off. Molly's fur becomes one with the wearer. Fun. I think I'll invest in a large roll of masking tape or one of those fancy dog-hair removers. (To remove the fur from fabric, not the dog!)

Molly's Weight Loss

Molly has stuck with the Betty-boot camp style of losing her excess flab. So far, so good. It seems she needs less food and Lucky needs more, so feeding time is pretty equal. Today (since it was cooler) we went for a bike/run. She runs and I bike. Fortunately, both Molly and Lucky are good runners beside my bike. I've heard horror stories about people who break bones while riding/running their dogs! Molly enjoys that first rush of energy when she hits the pavement...but she peters out about 1 mile down the road. Lucky hits the ground running and doesn't stop until we go down to the river and back. I'm usually exhausted before we start out, but that's another story altogether. Could have something to do with the 5 teenage girls my daughter had at her "sleep over" last night. (Read: SLEEPLESS over.)

Have a doggone good day!
